    <p>If the system at wherever you work is similar to the one where I work, then when you say "in QA" you mean you've put your code on a server for the testers to poke at. Now, when I first started here, I was told to leave certain existing config files as I found them on this server, because changes will introduce things that are specific to my machine and break things. I'm guessing you have a similar policy, and have therefore deployed your new page to a server, but left that server's Web.config alone. However, in Web.config, there's a whole list of sections that look something like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;location path="something"&gt; &lt;formsAuthenticationWrapper enabled="false"/&gt; &lt;system.webServer&gt; &lt;security&gt; &lt;authentication&gt; &lt;windowsAuthentication enabled="true"/&gt; &lt;anonymousAuthentication enabled="false"/&gt; &lt;/authentication&gt; &lt;/security&gt; &lt;/system.webServer&gt; &lt;system.web&gt; &lt;authorization&gt; &lt;allow users="?"/&gt; &lt;/authorization&gt; &lt;/system.web&gt; &lt;/location&gt; </code></pre> <p>where the "something" as the path value in the first line can be a path like "Assets/CSS" or a page like "Login.aspx". You'll notice that there's various settings for auth modes. </p> <p>Now, if the Web.config on the QA server mentions something called "Reports" and specifies that it requires a particular auth mode, then failure to provide suitable credentials for that mode will result in a 401. Changing the name to "Reportsx" probably just meant that it can no longer find a matching entry, and so fell back to a default mode, which apparently lets people in.</p> <p>So, try checking the server's Web.config for sections mentioning "something/Reports" and see what auth they require.</p>
